Authorities say Bowers shouted anti-Semitic epithets when he burst into the synagogue and gunned down the victims in what the Anti-Defamation League is calling the deadliest attack against the Jewish community in U.S. history.

But later that day it was business as usual at the Pataskala attraction, which has stirred controversy in past with its non-politically-correct themes.

Yet the Haunted Hoochie had changed its tune after a Sunday-long backlash on social media and posted an apology on its Facebook page Monday morning that begins with, “We screwed up big time.”

The post goes on to extend condolences to the victims of the families “affected by the tragedy in Pittsburgh,” assert that the attraction “will in no way tolerate any form of hatred on our grounds” and “will not host any musical acts which perpetuate any kind of bigotry, intolerance, hate speech, anti-Semitism, or the like, now, or ever again.”

The Haunted Hoochie also pledges in the post to make a $50,000 donation to the Tree of Life Synagogue.
